The female orgasm – you’ve been aspiring to conquer the beast since that awkward moment in high school when you lost your virginity and realized you knew nothing about female anatomy. Now that you’ve gotten a little older, wiser, you at least know where the hell things are (for the most part), but some things still remain a mystery. We’re calling you out on it – there’s no way you know everything.
Pretend you’re the man all you want, but it won’t get you anywhere. Learn the ten things you need to know about the big O and actually be the man. Won’t that feel a hell of a lot better?
The Average Orgasm is 20 Seconds
During that time, women have rhythmic contractions about every 0.08 seconds, each of which feel hella good.
Making Noise Makes it More Intense
When it comes to tantric sex, high-pitched moans bring sexual energy to your chest, throat, and head, while lower-pitched sounds bring the heat to your genitals. There’s a few things you can learn from tantra, and this is definitely one of them.
She’s More Likely to Open Up Afterwards
Once she climaxes, oxytocin – a calming, feel-good neurochemical – is released in her brain, making her more likely to open up to you. So the next time you do the deed and she starts spilling how she sees you two growing old together on the beach of Cape Cod, take it with a grain of salt.
Some Positions are Better Than Others
Obviously everyone is different, but according to experts, doggie-style is the key to a guaranteed happy ending. The position allows for simultaneous stimulation of the g-spot and clitoris, both of which are the biggest sexual hot spots.
The Clitoris has Roughly 8,000 Nerve Endings
So don’t ignore it! Nearly 80% of women need direct clitoral stimulation in order to reach climax, so get to work and know what you’re doing (and know where it is – don’t embarrass yourself).
Do Not Skip Foreplay
The more groping, the better. Foreplay increases your blood flow, making every part of your body more sensitive. It takes roughly 10-20 minutes of stimulation for the average woman to reach her peak, so don’t be lazy.
Her Pain Threshold can Increase up to 107% During Climax
You know that saying about pleasure and pain? Yeah, like that.
Having an Orgasm is like Doing Some Cardio
No, you can’t bone all day instead of going to the gym, but the grand finale is considered a cardiovascular activity. Your heart rate elevates, and blood pressure and respiratory rate increases, while your body also releases endorphins, all of which happen during a good workout. If only the gym could be this awesome.
Get Her to Relax – Anxiety Can Make It Impossible to Climax
Stress can really put a damper on things, and when she’s feeling anxious, there’s nothing you’ll do that will be able to get the job done. Plus super-stressed women have lower levels of physical arousal, so make sure the environment is a comfortable one and free of judgment. Or nothing good will ever come to you.
They Get Better With Age
So don’t give up – you still got a lot of time to perfect the art.
